| 1 cup ground pork | 1/2 cup minced shrimp | 5 shallots, finely chopped |
| salt | freshly ground pepper | 1 pound white cabbage leaves, blanched |
| 20 whole baby leek or spring onion greens, blanched | 6 cups chicken or pork stock | 2 tablespoons diced baby leek or spring onion stalks |
| 1 tablespoon cilantro, finely chopped | 2 tablespoons fish sauce | |
| 1 | In a large bowl, mix pork, shrimp and shallots. Season with salt and pepper. Put a tablespoon of the mixture into each cabbage leaf, roll and use the baby leek greens to tie the rolls into parcels. |
| 2 | Cook the parcels in salted water for 5 minutes and serve with the chicken or pork stock. Sprinkle with baby leeks, cilantro and freshly ground pepper. Serve with fish sauce, as a dip. |
